Deetz is right in that money controls almost everything, especially now, but people have to be more sensitive to others' feelings and ethics. This is why I cannot agree totally with this aspect of Deetz’s thoery.The second criteria I am going to use is consent. Deetz, according to Griffin, is convinced that corporations are greedy.
